In preparing for this I’ve been thinking about these words that the Prophet Isaiah spoke out, “As the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater, so is my word that goes out from my mouth:  It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.” Isaiah 55:10-11.

I’ve been thinking about how the word of God that we will study together will be like receiving the rain and snow from heaven…it will nourish, make bud and flourish, yield seed.  This gets me excited for all of us.  And not just for us, but for the world as well.

I’m praying that we would be shaped by His word and be transformed more like Christ.  But not just for us, so that we can feel good about ourselves and that we are all spiritual and in good with God.  But for the sake of the world that we will engage with the love of Christ that lives in us.

So come and be shaped by his word.
